Track 4: 'JUST ANOTHER LOVE SONG' - Independence (Clive Farrington)


'Just Another Love Song' on Clive Farrington's new album 'Independence'. Download on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/independence/id670306586


July 4th 2013 (Manchester, United Kingdom) - Music producer, Jon Brooks, teams up with Clive Farrington (lead vocalist - 'When In Rome') to co-write and produce Clive's first solo album 'Independence'.  The official release date is significant as 4th July also represents Clive Farrington's independent release outside of 'When in Rome'.

Music and lyrics written, performed, arranged and produced by: Jon Brooks and Clive Farrington (TMR Studios)

When in Rome had a No. 1 hit single in the USA called 'The Promise'.  It was released in 1988.  In 2004, 'The Promise' was used as the end title theme for the successful movie, 'Napoleon Dynamite'.  Due to unfortunate legal issues over the name 'When In Rome', Clive decided to go ahead with a solo album...

The new album exhibits a fusion of styles; blending classical orchestral elements with a modern day electronic sound... as an addition to this, 'Independence' also boasts a hint of the 80's too!  It's already receiving extensive radio play and TMR Records have just negotiated and licensed two of the tracks to GAP (Mexico) for use on their latest compilation CD.  Some of the album's tracks could be classed as a cross between the 'Pet Shop Boys', David Guetta, Scott Walker and Robert Miles.  The songs are honest, suitably original and highly emotive.

The new album 'INDEPENDENCE' is released on TMR (Tough Monkey Records) through Kobalt Label Services / AWAL on July 4th 2013.

--------------- LYRICS ---------------

NARRATIVE 1: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd)
 "It is being reported that over 40% of new internet profiles are actually fake. Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?"

VERSE 1:
It's time to dance
Like no one's watching
Trust yourself
And no cross talking
Believe in love
No bad religion
Fool no one
Your dreams fulfilling

CHORUS:
Out of all the places we could be
We lose ourselves so easily
Do not mistake identity
INVISIBLE
There are times when fortunes favour me
And times that I no longer see
But all the way, I find the game
INCREDIBLE

NARRATIVE 2: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide)
"Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught... They believe they are so called -- INVISIBLE -- They're about to find out they aren't INVISIBLE, any longer...
I - I - I — I — I - I - INVISIBLE
I - I — I - I - I - INVISIBLE
INVISIBLE"

VERSE 2:
Take yourself
To the top of the mountain
Breathe the air
Like no one's counting
Now it's time to rise
Above the bar now
You will reach
The furthest star now

CHORUS:
Out of all the places we could be
We lose ourselves so easily
Do not mistake identity
INVISIBLE
There are times when fortunes favour me
And times that I no longer see
But all the way, I find the game
INCREDIBLE

NARRATIVE 3: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd)
"Only 1 in 10 victims will inform a parent or trusted adult of cyber bullying abuse...
Cyber bullying abuse is the use of the internet and related technologies to harm other people in a deliberate, repeated and hostile manner...  Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?"

NARRATIVE 4: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide)
"Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught..."

CHORUS:
Out of all the places we could be
We lose ourselves so easily
Do not mistake identity
INVISIBLE
There are times when fortunes favour me
And times that I no longer see
But all the way, I find the game
INCREDIBLE

How lonely must your cold life be
If all the world but you can see
The dull cast shadow that you leave
INVISIBLE

VERSE 1:
You said it all, with that look you gave
A look only I can see
And if you could, then you would wonder
How and why... me?

CHORUS:
And all I wanted was your love
Why could you not deliver?
And if we tried harder maybe we
Could have loved forever

VERSE 2:
And if you look closely in the looking glass
You might just see what I can see
A look of disdain for no reason
The look that says you're lost at sea

CHORUS:
And all I wanted was your love
Why could you not deliver?
And if we tried harder maybe we
Could have loved forever

Yeah... You're all I ever wanted

I tried and tried so many times
Why could you not deliver?
And if we tried harder maybe we
Could have loved forever

I tried and tried so many times
Why could you not deliver?
And if we tried harder maybe we
Could have loved forever

And if we tried harder maybe we
Could have loved forever
Why could you not deliver?
